GET DAILY SIGNALSPoor Earnings Report for Wells Fargo & Co.
Wells Fargo released an earnings report earlier today, and it was to the disappointment of investors. The stock started off the day with over a 4 % dip and then bounced back to only a 1% loss on the day. The company is still trying to recover in the eyes of public perception since opening millions of unauthorized accounts. At the same time, WFC is trying to keep their sales employees happy by increasing their commissions and incentives. This could be a slippery slope for the bank because as their profits and revenues decrease, they are increasing their expenses to employees.
